The Heart
1
The heart=a muscular double pump with 2 functions
Overview
The right side receives
oxygen-poor – sends to
lungs to oxygenate
Its left side receives
oxygenated blood from
lung, sends to rest of body
2
Two circulations
Systemic circuit:
blood vessels that
transport blood to
and from all the body
tissues
Pulmonary circuit:
blood vessels that
carry blood to and
from the lungs

Starting from the outside…
Pericardium
-outer membrane
enclosing the
heart
Without most of pericardial layers
8
Layers of the heart wall
Epicardium- outer layer, protects the heart
by reducing friction
Myocardium- consists of cardiac muscle
tissue, pumps heart
Endocardium- inner lining of the heart,
contains blood vessels and elastic fibers

Chambers of the heart
sides are labeled in reference to the patient facing you
Two atria
Right atrium
Left atrium
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Two ventricles
Right ventricle
Left ventricle
12
Septum
Interatrial
Septum- Wall
separating right
and left Atria
Interventricular
Septum- Wall
separating right

Function of AV valves

16
Superior Vena Cava
Vein that carries deoxygenated blood from
upper body to the Right Atrium.
Such as arms, neck, and head.
17
Inferior Vena Cava
Vein that carries deoxygenated blood from
lower body to the Right Atrium.
Such as legs and lower torso
18
Pulmonary Artery
Carries blood from Right Ventricle to the
lungs to be oxygenated
Splits into Right and Left for each lung.
19
Pulmonary Veins
Total of 4 Pulmonary Veins (2 from each
lung)
Carries oxygenated blood from lungs back
into the heart’s Left Atrium
20
Aorta
Arched artery from Left Ventricle that supplies
body with oxygenated blood
Ascending arteries supply upper body
Descending supplies lower body
21
Valves
Pulmonary Valve
Connects Right Ventricle to Pulmonary artery
22
Valves
Aortic Valve
Connects Left Ventricle to Aorta
23
Valves
Tricuspid Valve
Boundary between right Ventricle and atrium

Valves
Mitral Valve
Connects Left Ventricle and Atrium
